These products are based upon a unique Multilam Technology with many patents which are evidence of the deep engineering knowledge and ability to meet the demands of today's market. Being ISO 9001 certified ensures these products fulfill the highest quality standards, offering a broad range of connectors for many industrial applications, and specializing in the design of customized solutions.

For increased energy output and system efficiency, all PV systems must be designed to minimize voltage drops. Furthermore, PV module wiring and cables are typically exposed to outside weather elements. Many solar PV installers use neoprene (HO7RN-F) cables. However, our experience in many installations shows that these cables are not suitable. The insulation in exposed neoprene cables tends to crack after a few years in an exposed environment and will lead to insulation problems.

These solar cables are extremely robust and resist high mechanical load and abrasion. High temperature resistance and excellent weather proofing characteristics provide a long service life. The characteristics of these solar cables are:

1,000V DC Voltage rating and Halogen-free

Application temperature range from -40ºC to +125ºC (+110V – TÜV)

High resistance against UV, ozone and hydrolysis

Very high mechanical robustness and resistance against water, oil and chemicals

Insulation is made from electron-beam cross-linked polymers which do not melt or flow, even at high

temperatures. Cross-linking also results in an excellent long-term heat and stress crack resistance

32 times longer life than PVC and 8 times longer than XPLE/PE

TÜV approved (TÜV Rheinland 2 Pfg 1169, certificate R02210086)

These cables are typically fixed to the mounting structures using UV proof cable ties (Colring™) up to the
Generator Junction boxes. Maximal admissible temperature is 105 degrees Celsius
After coupling, Keystone cables of bigger sections are used down to the Inverters Station. As the maximal operating temperature is 90 degrees Celsius, careful consideration will be used to protect these cables either through additional cable trenching or existing cable trays.
